Description

Make money with your phone. Scan any barcode and find out how much profit you can make by selling the item on Amazon. Profit Bandit uses a 15-factor profit calculator to provide the most accurate profit figure, including postage rates and all FBA fees. Requires an Amazon Pro Merchant account (you can get your first month from Amazon for free).

Don't pay $50/month for other apps. Profit Bandit provides more functionality for a fraction of the price. It's the best-value scouting app. Period.

If you're an FBA seller Profit Bandit calculates all the FBA fees for you and even lets you input your custom shipping rate to give you an even more accurate profit calculation.

Even if you're not an FBA seller Profit Bandit uses USPS Postage Rates (or Royal Mail for UK and Canada Post for CA) and Amazon Marketplace fees to calculate a precise profit figure.

Potential uses:

• Scan clearance and closeout items• Pick out the most valuable items at a garage sale or thrift store• Resellers can instantly assess the value of an item• Scan every item in your house or business to scout potential profit

FBA SELLERS: Add products to your "Shipment" list, then either save or email a CSV spreadsheet of your shipment that can be used to upload inventory to Amazon or as a reference document.

Pay twice for shite service I tried emailing them to resolve my billing. They responded saying create an account (I was charged twice last time this happened) and then followed up saying issue is resolved unless I sign-up again to reply. Pay 3 times in a 10 day period?! NO. I now fully regret ever using great scout/profit bandit as I sell a lot online.

BEST all around scouting app Profit Bandit is simply the best. No question. I have tried all the competition and currently use PB and FBAScan every day. And puh-leez, if you cant afford the $10 a month, you need to sit down and shut up and have no business selling online. Ignore all idiots giving 1 star reviews about cost or their dumb old phone not working. Get a newer phone, pay the fee, shut up. It takes work for these guys to develop and UPDATE this software constantly, and $10 a month is quite fair. You can get the old version if you paid the $15, but you wont like it because it isnt updated you dum-dum. The only issues I have is the lack of downloadable database and complete FBA offer info, but this is Amazons fail not Profit Bandits. And they do have a button to go straight to the Amazon listing page to see the full FBA offers. quick and easy. The profit calculation is spot on and quite configurable. I use this app for retail arbitrage, and I use FBAScan for scouting books because of the dl database. Customer support is the BEST I HAVE SEEN for any product ever. Seriously responsive and professional. Compared to competition (which I have tried all) Profit Bandit is FAR AND AWAY the best and cheapest.

Great program I've made $1000's of dollars from this program. Can't beat it! Update: I'm pretty upset that my Droid X2 suddenly is no longer working and I am told that I need to get a new phone. No notice or anything. What's the monthly fee for if not for them keeping the darned thing working?

Best scanning service out there! Profit Bandit was a huge game changer for my wife and I. I purchased the original app when it first came out. Over 2 years later I was able to quit my job and work at home with my wife and two children. Profit bandit was a big player in this, and we would not be where we are today as a business without them. The $10 fee they charge is generous and well with it and a lot lower than other scanning apps. Those who complain are idiots. You make your money back instantly with the service. Thank you again.

Forced Screen Rotation I have the Samsung Galaxy S6 and regardless of the internal settings of the app it force rotates the screen ONLY when I start scanning products. I have went through the settings and changed it to "do not auto rotate" and to no avail. If you fix this minor bug I'll not only change my review to 5 stars but I'll also come to your children's bar mitzvah and gift very generously. Tehe XD

Ive been trying to log in to this app for almost a month now it keep on tell me about Java script something. I email the developer until now no respond is there any other app out there that does the same thing I need someone to tell me as I am tired of trying with this one

You will lose money I have had this app for around two months and thought it was great until i got my fba fees deducted from my account and it was alot more than what the app stated when i was scouting. The inbound shipping cost is calculated wrong more lost of money. The weight of the item dosent show up on app. I contact PB two weeks ago and i am still waiting on a fix. In my opinon i would get scanpower instead. Its more expensive but maybe not in the long run. Ill wait 48 hrs for a fix then if not im going to scanpower.

Great App!! Tell the cry babies complaining about the $10 per month that if they can't more than cover it using the app they shouldn't sell on Amazon. I would like to have a button that links you to Amazons scan feature. That would be great for items without barcodes.

Everything I need to be successful An amazing app that allows you to quickly see if items are profitable on Amazon. To all the cry babies whining about a month fee, it's $15/mo. If you can't make that up in 10 minutes of using the app you're doing it wrong. The only thing I'd like to see is the ability to download the Amazon catalog for situations where Cell service is bad.

Subscription now? I paid $15 for this a while back and it had unlimited scans. Now I must pay $10 per month too? This is bad business ethics. You should at least grandfather existing accounts. I demand a refund.

Bandit Purchase this app for $15 for unlimited scans - I thought it was an excellent deal and love the app but then I received an email that I have to pay a $10 monthly subscription if I want to continue using profit bandit. - Thin line between scam and rip off. They should have honor the original purchase and created another product with the new changes and put an option if you want it or not.

Ripoff, paid $15, now when I go to use it they want a monthly fee!!! I bought this app and just recently went to use it and found out it now has a monthly fee. If I had known this I would not have paid the $15.00.. Users who already bought this should be grandfathered in for no monthly fee.

Love the app however disappointed. Purchased this app originally with the promise of a one time fee. Now you want $10 a month. I could understand if it was a new download. Instead the program ceases to work and you 're-install only to find out they want money every month now. Bad business, don't promise what you won't deliverw.

I use it. But that don't mean I particularly like it. This is easily the best scouting app out there. 9.99 a month not a big deal until you go to hook up a Bluetooth scanner that is another $50 and then another $50 to rid the app of an annoying unlicensed version message every 3rd scan. Oh and BTW dev is not at all up front about the second $50 dollar charge. I feel scammed. Not to mention I originally purchased this for a "one time fee of $15".

Scam???? I purchased this app about a year ago. They recently changed their business model to subscription. Fine.... But I should be grandfathered in, as I paid for unlimited scans. I already tried emailing the company for resolution, no reply from them. The app works great, it's a shame because I now won't use it as they have shady business model.

No updates since July 18th After they changed the pricing structure and alienated there original users I was hoping that they would at least keep the app fresh. Seems like there horrible pricing change was just a great way for them to pull in cash, and not continue to add value. I wonder what they do with all the money

No Internet connection? Really wanted to give this app a try and see what all the hype is about. Unfortunately every time I try to sign up it gives me an error message saying I have no Internet connection when clearly I do. You want to charge me $9.99 a month to use your app when I can't even get an Internet connection through it. Might want to have a more reliable app before you start charging people for it

Not accurate for FBA We had purchased inventory after scanning with this app and went to list it an hour later and the items were selling for considerably less then what the app listed. We are canceling the subscription and uninstalling.

No-Brainer for FBA Sellers You'll see the negatives about the monthly fee. But $9.99 is NOTHING compared to my monthly income generated from taking advantage of this app. The subscription fees will fund feature improvements as well.

Read the Description Yes, it's a monthly subscription it says that right up front. No complaining about ordering it and then being shocked by this. You didn't read, now you just look dumb. As a scanning app for my small business, I don't love it or hate it. It does what it says it will and it's not expensive.

Useless purchase Purchased 3 copies for the business ($45), then a short time later they changed to subscription rendering our purchase completely useless. We only used it a couple of times. We should have been grandfathered in since we didn't agree to a subscription at the time of purchase.

Nothing like a company changing their minds.... So let's see...pay this company upfront for their app with the promise of unlimited scans and then they decide to change their business model and try and charge a monthly fee. If you don't pay the monthly fee then you are limited to only 10 searches, that's a great way to do business and screw over your customers. I'd also like to point out the NO WHERE in the description does it mention the $10/month subscription requirement.

subscription was a dumb idea why would anyone pay 15 dollars for an app that allows only 10 searches. i can do that with my own device. what a crappy business move! stop the subscription or youll use all your customers
